You mean archive-to-disk, but to a directory on different machine from the
one on which you are running flexbackup?

flexbackup currently doesn't work that way (there's a few wrinkles
involved).  With tape drives its a bit easier, so that is supported.


Run flexbackup *FROM* the machine with the disk, specifying the remote
machines to be backed up (host1:/dir, host2:/dir, etc.).  Most of the
processing actually occurs on the remote end.

(Or use NFS...)
